This is an edited down document of the last ever 2 hours at Wigan casino, this was the 'real' end of an era allnighter (the hastily arranged second one doesn't count), this was obviously my last ever visit and it was a fantastic night, as you'll hear from this very emotional recording. If you were ever a Casino regular, I wouldn't be surprised if this has you in tears, not only at the end, but also listening to the atmosphere on tracks like A Little Bit Hurt, Move On Up and Tainted Love - it has never been equalled and it never will be. This isn't the best quality tape I've put up by a long chalk but it's priceless as a historical document. Please feel free to use this recording in any way you want but I would ask if you could credit the source, thanks.

Think it starts with Brian Rae, might be a little Dave Evison and of course Russ at the end

Thanks for posting.....I'll add it to my new collection of your stuff.
